How come that when I write JavaPlugin.getDefault() in my Plugin, it
returns me a Null pointer ?

Could someone explain it to me please ?

I am writting a plugin for eclipse and I need to call the method
GetterSetterUtil.getGetterStub. But everytyme, I get an exception of a
null pointer resulting from the fact that JavaPlugin.getDefault() returns
null !
I really don't understand where does that come from...
Do I have to add some statements before calling
GetterSetterUtil.getGetterStub or am I doing something wrong ?

Could someone please help me ?

Looks like the Java UI plug-in was not correctly loaded and hence it is
not there (null). Check your .log. Did you specify the Java UI plug-in
as required?

I am not sure to understand what you mean by the Java UI plug-in... Is it
org.eclipse.ui or org.eclipse.jdt.ui or something else?
Where would I have to specify this Java UI plug-in ?

I've checked my .log but didn't find anything interisting...

JavaPlugin is code which resides in org.eclipse.jdt.ui (i.e. the Java UI
plug-in) and since you use code from it you have to declare it as
required plug-in.
